A brilliant poem by our team member Anne Russell

Nice and sunny what a beautiful day

As I go walking on my way

Oh what do I see what have I found

But mess and litter on the ground

I walk my dog upon this field

My eyes are always peeled

Lots of broken glass about

A smashed up bottle from a lout

I swept up all the glass with care

And picked up all the rubbish there

It's in the bin where it belongs

Don’t the litter bugs know its wrong

I would not mind but there is a bin

With which to put your rubbish in

Why do they have to smash the glass

It gets embedded in the grass

I have to watch my poor dogs paws

In case she gets some cuts and sores

There’s lots of doggies go on this ground

To sniff and play and chase around

There is also lots of dirty poop

That people did not care to scoop

Not very nice when it’s trod in

It should be bagged and in the bin

I am a member of the clean team

We strive to keep this lovely town clean

It is ongoing there’s no reprieve

All this litter we have to retrieve

So have respect and love this space

It is a rather lovely place

So make it smart and not rundown

For Middlewich is a lovely town

Amen
